The equation 44 - x + 2x = 50 can be used to determine the number of cats/kittens adopted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of cats/kittens at the event = 44

Number of cats/kittens at the end of event = 50

Let,

x be the number of cats/kittens adopted

Therefore;

Number of cats/kittens returned = 2x

Number of cats/kittens at the event - adopted + returned = Number at the end of event

44 - x + 2x = 50

The equation 44 - x + 2x = 50 can be used to determine the number of cats/kittens adopted.

If a wagon wheel has a diameter of 70cm, how many revolutions would it take to travel 66 METERS?
ddd [48]

Answer:

30 revolutions

Step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the revolution of the wheels in 66 metres we need to get the circumference

circumference = 2πr, r = radius (diameter divided by 2) but from the formula of circumference we ca rewrite it as πd= 3.14 x 70 = 219.8cm

next convert 66 metres to cm

100cm = 1m

x= 66m

cross multiply

x= 66m x100cm/1m= 6600cm

revolutions in 66metres = 6600cm/219.8cm = 30.0272975 ≅30 revolutions
